The functions explained in this section apply to networked systems. See also guidelines for standalone system.For information
on Command build actions across a network, see Appendix C.

When commissioning a network of control panels, ensure the software version is the same across all the
panels. This is also applicable when an existing network is to be installed with additional panels.

There can be up to a maximum of 64 Master Sectors per
panel
a total of 255 Master sectors per network system
they are therefore a collection of:
•
Sectors
•
Delayblocks
•
Master Alarms
•
and Aux Relays from one or more Systems.
they provide global alarm actions across a network of
control panels
Fire Input Sectors must only be assigned to one Master
Sector.
Output Sectors can be assigned to more than one Master
Sector.
Master Sectors can be actioned by a Sectored Fire Event.
a triggered Master Sector can action one or any
combination of:
•
Sector
•
another Master Sector
•
Command Build (not locally)
•
Delay Blocks
•
Master Alarms
•
or Auxiliary Relays.
if a Sector assigned to a Master Sector has a Fire Event,
the Master Sector will not perform any local actions on the
Panel in alarm.
if a Command Build actions a Master Sector, the actions
will be performed on other panels, but Command Builds
will not be triggered.
a Master Sector must have something assigned to it before
any Master Sector action links can be made to it.
Master Sector Fire Event actions on other Panels can be
stopped by global Silence Alarms.
